Question

priya.'s mother is 5times as old as priya .after five years ,her mother will be three times as old as she will be then .find their present ages

Answer 1

Let Priya's age=A,

then
Mother's age=5A,

(5A+5)=3(A+5),

5A+5=3A+15,

5A-3A=15-5,

2A=10,

A=5,

then

Priya's age=5 yrs,

mother's age=5×5=25 yrs
